Hunter x Hunter is overrated. The anime is slow paced and sucks. Thank god I dropped this. One Piece is better than this trash. - danhibiki

This is my all time favourite. I wish I could erase my memories of having watched this and watch it all over again because it's so damn good

Deserves 1st place! Whoever tries to change this from 1st place and succeed, DIE

3One PieceOne Piece is a manga franchise created by Eiichiro Oda. The manga has been adapted into an original video animation (OVA) produced by Production I.G in 1998, and an anime series produced by Toei Animation, which began broadcasting in Japan in 1999 and has aired 851 episodes to date.

Should be #1 or at least 2

Would have been Dragon Ball but it was ruined by Dragon Ball GT.

4Boku No Hero AcademiaMy Hero Academia is a superhero manga series written and illustrated by Kōhei Horikoshi. It has been serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump since July 2014, and 20 volumes have been collected in tankōbon format.

Best Shonen to come out in a long time, I believe that if the story continues to go as strong as it is right now, it will reach the popularity heights of Naruto, one piece and maybe even dragon ball. The amazing blend of music, animation and character development is what really sets this show apart from its pears.

I think for the anime of Boku No Hero Academia, it should be higher on the list. With the starting of season 3, it has been becoming one of the most popular anime of Shonen

Season 1 starts out kinda slow and boring, but seasons 2 and 3 are so good that watching the first season will feel worth it, trust me.

While no element of the show is unique unto itself, it does however do everything that it wants to borderline perfectly

5Death NoteDeath Note is a Japanese television drama series based on the manga series of the same name by Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata.
The show is centered around Light Yagami a promising highschooler and aspiring detective with a strong sense of "justice".

Best anime of all time, surpasses even Bleach

6Dragon BallDragon Ball is a Japanese anime television series produced by Toei Animation. It made anime popular in America and is based on the manga of the same name by Akira Toriyama. It was dubbed in English on Cartoon Networks Toonami block and still has many fans today.

This is way more adventurous and fun when compared to Dragon Ball Z. I love them all, but the character development in Dragon Ball and overall show quality completely trumps DBZ.

7Naruto ShippudenNaruto: Shippuden is the ongoing sequel to the original Naruto anime and covers the Naruto manga from volume twenty-eight on. The TV adaptation of Naruto: Shippuden debuted in Japan on February 15, 2007 on TV Tokyo. It is developed by Studio Pierrot and directed by Hayato Date.

8BleachBleach is a Japanese anime series based on Tite Kubo's manga of the same name. Bleach adapts the first 54 volumes of Tite Kubo's manga series of the same name. In addition, 4 anime-original arcs were broadcast in-between and during the adaptations of original arcs of the manga. ...read more.

Need Bleach to come back everything else is absolute trash. Even Dragon ball has nothing on Bleach. Why in gods name did they ever stop making this?

Make Bleach anime return please! 1

Bleach in my opinion is by far one of the best ever made

After Bleach I can't watch any other anime, all others seem substandard.

10NarutoNaruto is an anime and manga franchise Naruto, created by Masashi Kishimoto. The manga was later adapted into a television anime, which was produced by Studio Pierrot and Aniplex.

This anime is so good from the story to the characters and even the filler by far the best magic anime right above black clover

In my opinion Fairy tail is one of the best anime shows.

I love this anime

Thisanime has great plot...several diverse and interesting characters the only vad thing is that this anime drags too much just like most of the anime's (one peice,naruto,bleach,dragon ball z)

14GintamaGin Tama, also styled as Gintama, is a Japanese manga written and illustrated by Hideaki Sorachi and serialized, beginning on December 8, 2003, in Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump.

I do not understand why it's on number 17. It's comedy is top tier, the action is golden, and just Gintoki is a great character. Okita is my favourite, but still. It's not just satirical, there's some action too, and some good one at that. This should be no. 1, what the hell. Well, it can compete with Hunter x Hunter (2011), but I prefer Gintama cause it's Gintama.

Gintama is underrated. It is probably the best anime I've watched so far. Comprising arcs with different genres and lovable characters from main to minor ones, this anime is highly recommended. (Unless u r too slow to understand the jokes lol)

16Hunter x Hunter (1999)Hunter × Hunter is a manga franchise created by Yoshihiro Togashi.

20Assassination Classroom

Knows when to be absolutely funny and also serious. It is a great mix of emotion throughout and I could not stop watching once I started. Number 2 maybe only to HxH

21Jojo's Bizarre AdventureJojo's Bizarre Adventure is an anime and manga franchise originally written by Hirohiko Araki. It centers around the perilous journey of the members of the legendary Joestar bloodline.

25Haikyuu!

So many good anime but my vote goes to this one for it holds a special place in my heart. The characters are so great. Its impossible not to bound with them. I also had a hard time not to root for the other team because all teams and their players have their own story and kind of win your respect during the series. And not to forget the tention all the matches bring with them. I was on the edge of my seat most of the time, laughing and crying with all the characters as they went thru their own personal development and ending up winning or losing... Great great series.

This is the best shounen I have ever seen. Very relatable and lovable characters

26Sailor MoonSailor Moon is a Japanese shōjo manga series by Naoko Takeuchi. It was originally serialized in Nakayoshi from 1991 to 1997; the 52 individual chapters were published in 18 tankōbon volumes. ...read more.

While I love sailor moon I don't think it belongs on this list. It was originally published in Nakayoshi magazine, not Shonen jump.

This show was kinda boring at first but in a few episode it so cool that I really wanted another season.

31Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo

Best one of em all
